it's been a while, sorry guys ive been busy.
Enjoy:
Catherine eventually left Sara to sleep and went home to be with her daughter. When Sara woke up in the morning, she found herself being cuddled by her husband.
"Morning Love."
"You're already awake?"
"Yeah, been awake for a few minutes."
Sara turned towards him and kissed him.
"When did you get here?"
"About 5 am."
"What time is it now?"
"Ten."
"Normal CSI sleep time," Sara said chuckling.
"Mhm, I love you."
"And I you."
Sara smiled and closed her eyes.
"How you feel?"
"Eh. Tired."
"Mrs. Grissom," a nurse said walking into the room, "glad to see your awake. I'm just here to take some blood. We wanna make sure your white blood cells are up and good."
"And if they are I can go home right?"
"Yes Ma'am."
"Thank god, I really wanna just go home."
"Well, the blood tests could take a few hours, but it shouldn't be more than two or three."
"Alright, the sooner the better though.'
"I know, you're not the first cancer patient who had to stay for a small blood transfusion."
Sara huffed and looked at her husband.
"Gil?"
"Yeah Sara?"
"Has Catherine told you anything about our plans?"
"No, what plans?"
Sara explained to Grissom how if she were to allow a salon to shave her head before the chemo had her already bald that the girls in the lab would all shave their head wherever Sara chose for them.
"It's their birthday present for me. That and we're all gonna go out for lunch afterwards."
"Does Conrad know?"
"No, why should it matter?"
"Well, you never know what he might make 'against dress code'."
"Well, the new girl's his daughter and she's doing it to so unless he really wants to punish all of us he won't care."
Sara smiled and grabbed Grissom's hand. It was long until Sara was released and she and Grissom were in at work for the night. Catherine and the new girl hung back due to the lack of cases and were in the break room with Sara.
"So, Sara," Catherine started, "how are you feeling?"
"I'm alright. The chemo's doing what it's supposed to."
"Good, what time will you be open on your birthday?"
"Anytime after I wake up and eat."
"Alright so we'll all go out for lunch and then go to the salon?"
"Yeah! I like the sound of that."
Sara coughed after finishing speaking.
"You alright?"
"Yeah, I just need to go lay down."
Sara stood and left the room, going into Grissom's office. She laid down and called Grissom, who was at a scene.
"Better be important Sara, in the middle of processing the scene."
"Just wanted to let you know, I'll be in your office when you get back."
"Alright, anything else?"
"Not really, just wanted to hear your voice."
"You miss me?"
"A lot."
"I'll be back soon sweetheart."
"Alright."
"Sleep tight Sara."
"I will. Love you."
"Love you too."
They both clicked end and smiled at their phones. Sara grabbed the blanket from Grissoms desk and laid down. The next thing she remembered was being in the morgue under some kind of body cooler.
"What the hell is going on," she asked wery.
"You've got a temp of 105.6."
"I'm so fucking cold. Get these things off of me!"
Sara started to try standing but Grissom pinned her to the metal slab.
"Remind you of anything Gilbert?"
Sara smiled as she relaxed.
"You are so dirty Sara."
Sara stuck her tongue out at him and sighed.
"You alright Sara?"
"Yeah, Gil. I'm fine. Can you check to see if I'm doing any better please? I'm freezing my ass off."
Grissom took the thermometer and put it in Sara's mouth. They waited three minutes until it beeped.
"99.0, let's get these off of her. I'll crank up my A/C and she can go back to sleep."
"Grissom," Al said, "she should stay here. We could put her in one of the coolers with a light blanket and keep the door open. I'll take care of her."
"Are you alright with that Sara?"
"If I can get a pillow too."
"Alright, I'm gonna get her a pillow from my office and get it back here. I'll be back in fifteen minutes tops."
"Just go," Sara said as she stood.
Grissom kissed her and was gone.
"The middle row, first drawer to your left is empty."
"Thanks Al."
